EO/IR Gimbal Market Trends:

Rising Demand for Unmanned Vehicles

The growing adoption of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), drones, and unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) for surveillance, reconnaissance, and military operations is driving the market's growth. For instance, according to IMARC, India's unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) market size is projected to exhibit a growth rate (CAGR) of 13.20% during 2024-2032. EO/IR gimbals are essential for providing high-quality, stabilized imaging, and targeting capabilities on these platforms. These factors are expected to propel the EO/IR gimbal market in the coming years.

Increased Defense Spending

Governments worldwide are investing heavily in defense technology, including EO/IR systems for surveillance, reconnaissance, and targeting. For instance, in July 2024, the Ministry of Defense approved INR 300 crore through its Technology Development Fund to improve capacities in cutting-edge technology and promote 'Aatmanirbharta' in defense. The government planned to increase India's yearly defense manufacturing. These systems are essential for modern military operations and homeland security. These factors further positively influence the EO/IR gimbal market forecast.

Technological Advancements

Improvements in sensor technology, image processing, and stabilization systems have enhanced the performance and capabilities of EO/IR gimbals. For instance, in July 2024, UAVOS launched the Gimbal 155, a new gimbaled camera designed specifically for the UAS Survey Mission program. The GOS-155 two-axial gimbal is an EO/IR system. It consists of a 30x optical zoom HD (1280X720) visible camera and a fixed focal length, uncooled thermal LWIR (1280X1024) camera. This allows users to capture intricate pictures in both the visible and infrared spectrums, thus boosting mission success. This technological progress makes these systems more attractive for a wide range of applications, thereby boosting the EO/IR gimbal market revenue.

The report has provided a detailed breakup and analysis of the EO/IR gimbal market based on the product type. This includes 2-axis EO/IR gimbals, and 3-axis EO/IR gimbals.

According to the EO/IR gimbal market outlook, 2-axis gimbals are often used in applications where cost constraints are a significant factor, such as in certain commercial drones or entry-level surveillance systems. They provide stabilization in pitch and roll axes, which is sufficient for many applications where full 3D stabilization is not necessary. While 3-axis gimbals offer stabilization across all three axes (pitch, roll, and yaw), making them ideal for high-precision applications requiring optimal image clarity and stability. They are widely used in military drones, high-end surveillance systems, and professional-grade imaging platforms where superior stabilization is crucial.
